At Improving Sales Performance, we are proud to be celebrating Women in Sales Month once again.

For all of October, we have an amazing slate of women sales leaders who will be sharing their unique insights.

From offering advice for sales managers new and old to surveying the anticipated landscape of sales in the years ahead, when it comes to Improving Sales Performance, these ladies know how it's done.

Joining Matt for the entire month is Stephanie Downs, SVP & Senior Consultant at The Center for Sales Strategy.
Today, our guest is Stacey Kauffman, Regional Vice President for San Francisco and Sacramento at Audacy.

Stacy has so many amazing observations. Such as:

Prioritizing your focus amidst the flurry of data that is constantly at our fingertips (Hint, hint: Don’t be chained to your desk)
How Account Executives can no longer “wear all of the hats” like they used to
And why you can’t “build a team of unicorns”
